The GSMA 5G Futures Community brings together international ecosystem participants to share best practices, success stories and opportunities of 5G technologies, while also serving as a channel for identifying and addressing the real-world, salient challenges faced by mobile network operators.
The community covers key topics and themes in the 5G era, including 5G Standalone, 5G-Advanced, AI for networks, network infrastructure, APIs for networks, Fixed Wireless Access and network capabilities including Network Slicing and Private Networks.
The GSMA Open Gateway initiative is helping the industry progress towards modern network functionalities, enabling the development of more capable, flexible and scalable 5G networks. The initiative is opening up mobile networks to developer and software communities, enabling Network Operators to foster the development of new, innovative business models.
5G SA is will be the cornerstone for transforming mobile networks into a piece of software and exposing that software to the world with further deployment in 2024. Explore how 5G Standalone networks are unlocking the full potential of 5G.
5G-Advanced capabilities will transform every aspect of the services Mobile Network Operators provide for their customers with 2026 set to see large-scale deployment of 5G-Advanced worldwide. Explore the full suite of 5G-Advanced technologies that are supercharging uplink connectivity.
Telco AI enables telecom companies to optimise their networks by predicting and preventing network failures, reducing downtime, and improving overall performance, whilst also enabling operators to meet new enterprise service demands for AI capabilities. Join the GSMA Mobile AI Community to connect, learn and lead on AI-driven telco innovations.
The role of Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTNs) in the mobile operator landscape is rapidly evolving — from niche use cases to a strategic component of 5G-Advanced and 6G-era architectures. NTNs (primarily satellites and high-altitude platforms) are poised to transform the industry across coverage, resilience, and new revenue models. Join the GSMA NTN Community to be part of the conversation.
Find out how we facilitate discussion, collaboration and action between the mobile industry and adjacent industries to move sector-specific innovations forward and help drive growth.
